Affordable, caring and peace of mind.

It is an older facility but the were remodeling. This is a budget friendly facility. This is an independent living community so the "care" is limited but they did a great job at what they provided. With the activities, again it is an independent living community so the activities were not as expected. I would absolutely recommend Kamlu. With the rising cost of housing and senior living, finding quality, affordable care can be challenging for many older adults. Kamlu provides a welcoming environment with compassionate staff who genuinely care about their residents. For those who are able to live independently but appreciate the peace of mind that comes from having caring staff nearby, Kamlu is an excellent choice. It offers the perfect balance of independence, support, and affordability.

A bad decision

Nothing like the advertisement online. No beauty salon. She stopped seeing clients some time ago. Food was terrible. Breakfast - if you got bacon it was burnt to a crisp. Very often so was the toast. You could eat it or not. No choice of getting it replaced. More than often the dinners looked liked they were made from leftovers from the fridge. She ate out or cooked in her room as often as she could. They promised a discount for 6 to 8 months or as long as the construction continued in that building. That didn't happen. Discount was only for about 4 months. She had to deal with construction dust that may or may not contain asbestos. The most concerning issue was safety. The entry door was propped open with rock. After the community tv was stolen they started closing it at night and you had to use your key to get in. However the smokers would go out at night and prop the door open so they could get back in and not have to use their key.

Nice Location But Room For Improvement

We left after 2 months, feeling like we were taken advantage of. Housekeeping that we paid for was hit or miss cause they were so short of staff and the staff assigned those duties had health issues that limited their work ability. Dog clean up stations were not emptied the whole time we were there and were stinking and overflowing. Friendliness of staff really depended on which staff person you spoke with. They were so short staffed that the managers were serving food, working in kitchen, cleaning apts. We felt like many services were lacking needed attention. Food was plentiful but high sodium, greasy, not aimed at lower activity people. We had better things to do with the hours spent waiting for your food with few servers and eating. The majority of food served to us was not eaten and ended up thrown away. As an active senior I was bored. Most residents chose not to participate. I started my own activity to share and it was well attended. Again, lack of staffing limited the offerings. We felt the cost was too high for the care, activities, food, and facilities included. Our current senior living choice provides many activities, is very clean, pleasant staff, and we are around other residents who are not sitting in their apartments waiting to die. The cost is over [fee removed] less per month with a lot more provided.

Title warm friendly home

It was a great experience for my dad. Very welcoming right from the first day. Great staff. Perfect size room. Our experience was 5+ stars. Friendly staff. Residents were so welcoming and made my dad comfortable to get involved. He made friends the day we moved in and they would stop by and visit. Meals were a great time for visiting and laughing - love loved the desserts.

Clean, reasonable, fun and friendly place for seniors

The apartments are adequate but a little dated. It's ok as maybe it's helping to keep the prices down. They are so respectful and kind to both the families and especially to the residents

super friendly staff

The staff members at this community are just fantastic and our loved one has all the freedom. They have a transportation bus that will take the residents to and from different shopping stores, and there are exercise classes. There are no requirements for our loved one, they can come and go as they please. We wanted a place like that for our loved one but also has staff on site to assist him if he falls or needs something. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have currently had,

My mom loves it there except the fact her rent went up. The place is always clean. But they don't clean my mom's room once a week like they said they would do. Other than that we love the place. I've recommended it to some of my friends for their parents. Oh and momma Complains about the food. She has made many friends and truly loves it here.

While my loved one was living here she really enjoyed it and absolutely loved the staff. Since she has moved out I know that they are under new ownership. My loved one has friends who have moved out because they said that they new ownership has dropped the ball on some things.

The people were pleasant at this community but there was another community that was the best overall. This community did not have a medicaid option and that was needed. Also the environment just seemed less social than what I was looking for for my loved one.

A comfortable place to live, but the food could be better.

The main issue is the food. My loved ones don't care for the things they serve. But it's a good place. The staff are friendly. The apartments are cleaned on a set schedule, and the housekeepers are friendly as well. Overall my loved ones like their apartment. It's a little bit dated, but they love the sliding glass door that walks out onto a back patio.

Mom is happy here

We chose Kamlu Retirement because it is a very homey, smaller facility. The people are so friendly and everybody is really nice. It is very centrally located, not far from the hospital and it just close to everything you need. They have a bus that you can sign up for rides to stores or doctors appointments. The apartment sizes are reasonable for a studio, they do have other options as well on sizes. It is a lovely place and my mom is very happy here. I would recommend to others.

Our family had an in person tour and we have a great experience. We loved the community but unfortunately it was just not what our grandmother was looking for. It did not have the full kitchen in the apartment to where she could cook for herself. We would consider Kamlu later down the road when our loved one needs more assistance and not independence.

I would recommend

I chose Kamlu Retirement because of the affordability. The apartment sizes here depend what side of the building you are on, on the older side the apartments are smaller, but on the newer side the studios are quite large and nice. The best part about the community so far has been the staff members and residents, they are very friendly. I would recommend.

I love this community,Sweet it is.Management is very caring and helpful, at all times.The food is great, as we have 3 meals, actual full on meals, with 3 choices at lunch and dinner with a heart healthy choice at each. This is a smaller, bright and open community.I am blessed to live here. It is a little pricey for my budget, AND....it is truly worth it!
